My cancer Journey

still dehydrated

I went into a followup appointment today....My doctor pinched my skin and it slowly lay back down, taking its' time...sort of a lazy slide. He said my skin should pop back into place...I was still dehyraded. Again I was hooked up to an IV and this time put in a isolation room so if this was a virus I would not give it to other cancer patients. I felt lonely and like some abandonned dog.... I made the choice not to call anyone. I did not want my daughter to miss work again. From the isolation room you can see the other patients getting treatment. Their loved ones hovering over them....comforting them. I sat there, alone with my thoughts to keep me company. I wondered how much more drama and heartache I was going to have to go through....how much more I could take?
Yesterday I while the others were watching the superbowl...I played with my daughters new puppy. How wonderful puppies are to love anyone even with faults...they just love. I would love to have someone in my life who just loved me for me......flaws and all.
